Turbo suggestions for the Master of Modifications!
Hey all, I'd like to hear some suggestions for my turbo selection. I'll be working on it soon, so I'd like to have some feedback before purchasing.
My engine is a 2002 ej205. I have 8:1 Pistons, wrx exhaust cams, pink injectors, stock flywheel & act street clutch on my rebuilt & balanced motor. I'm interested in a turbo with an external wastegate. My turbo will be located rearward of the engine approximately at the engine/trans part line, with the compressor housing pointed forward. My location will require slightly longer primary tubes than stock but clearance around the unit will not be a problem since I'm building all the surrounding infrastructure. I plan to use stock size primary tubes for my headers to maintain exhaust gas velocity. 2-into 1 tubes from each head, 2-into 1 again just before the turbo mount.
I read a little about twin scroll turbos & would be interested in one. My car will be used primarily for street so nothing too big please. I'm shooting for 300 rwhp and 6500-7000 redline if possible. From what I've read, this should require about 18 lbs of boost to achieve.
Let me hear from you & thanks in advance!
